    Poor Cayo, a flawed yet talented fighter who had a ton of heart, he was gone in the last round. Maidana never panicked, he attacked smartly and crudely at the same time if that's possible, and he got the job done. Cayo was going to be put away soon in that fight, the body shot was just perfect icing on the cake though. Even though Cayo isn't the same caliber as Ortiz imo, I think it was as good if not better of a performance.

    For the moment, Maidana seems on a super roll, limited abilities perhaps but it seems that he has enough of everything to flat down some of the top guys. Not sure if he'll ever be a greatness but he really deserve some high profile fights and as it has been said here, peoples won't be able to duck him eternally.

    I like Maidana. A fight with Alexander would be a bad career move at least right now. It would turn out like the Urango fight. I prefer Urango for Maidana. That's what you call a war.

    Why is his name "Chino"?

    Maidana is definitely a good fighter, but I dont think you can take too much away from the Cayo TKO. Cayo just seemed way to green in there and would have gotten dominated by any top 140. Maidana would take too many shots from Bradley, but I guess he always has that punchers chance....

    Cayo was a very good fight for him in fact a lot of people picked Cayo to win. The problem with Maidana is that Khan has already ducked him, Bradley and Alexander are on to greener pastures, so he won't even get a shot at any of those guys. Bradley's next fight is at Welter so we'll see if he even comes back down.

    Marcos Rene Maidana vs Mike Alvarado sounds like a reailstic fight to me.

    I thought they were exploring a fight between Maidana and Alexander?

    I hope you're right, but I'd imagine they will put Alexander in against someone that puts more asses in the seats like Malignaggi, Juan Diaz maybe even Victor Ortiz (although I'd be shocked if GBP puts him in). The fight that really needs to happen is Alexander/Bradley

    youve got to love maidana, he is just so old school

    Even in the early rounds when cayo was using his speed and reach to his advantage, maidana just refused to take his foot of the pedal and let the boxing do the work constantly trading with the dangerous cayo.

    I didnt see it happening 4rounds in but eventually cayo faded out as he couldnt keep up with the pace.

    Best body shot of 2010 for sure
    one dangerous horrible bloke

    from what I saw Saturday, Kahn would outbox him and maybe stop him. With as many openings as he has and the times he gets tagged with the way Khan fights now I could see him beating him.

    I cannot see Khan beating Maidana. Khan does have hand speed and boxing skills to do the job but after seeing the firepower that this guy has I expect Khan to be knocked out in savage fashion.

    To me when Khan boxes on the outside he seems unsure of himself and more venerable. I noticed this moreso in the Kotelnik fight then others. I thought Khan would have a good chance before, I don't think he would win now though.

    Not sure how he'd do against Khan now. The longer he keeps winning, the more he impresses me. He is what he is, and his bulldozer approach could have Khan feeling uncomfortable and looking vulnerable. On the other hand, Khan could stop him quite early as Maidana leaves himself wide open when he throws his wide shots.

    I can tell you what. No way Golden Boy puts Khan in with Maidana after what Maidana did to their last prospect (Victor Ortiz). Don't be surprised to see Khan move up to welterweight pretty soon so that he can bid his time filling out fighting tune ups and fringe contenders.
